        Probably worth it. The name of the city should remind of its heroic past not only to our people, but also to our enemies - who are eager to repeat the fate of the Nazis.

          We then know about the heroic past of the city and the enormous losses of its defenders and liberators, but there is apparently no koliurenga, its teacher and ancestors - but in order to know, to drive this pack in Hitler’s uniform in front of the parade, to drag around the city to memorable places. in their own skin felt the reaction of the townspeople!

            Those you named are not even the tip of the iceberg. In the history curriculum, there’s a lot to redraw and add hours to the study of the Second World War, as well as to voluntarily and forcibly familiarize yourself with the materials of the Second World War in such a selection that after such an acquaintance the hair would stand on end with the phrase “innocent murdered fascist”!

          Volgograd is a faceless name, some cities on the Volga can be given this name and this will not affect the image. Here is Volzhsky, for example. And Stalingrad ... The whole world knows him, or rather, he knew ... With the current rewriting of history in the same Europe, few people remember him. Why is such undisguised hatred of everything where "Stalin" sounds ?? What does the city have to do with ?? I doubt very much that tens and hundreds of thousands of those killed in this Battle loved Stalin and went to death out of fear of detachments, as some "historians" are trying to tell us now.

          And further. In the USSR, they liked to create different monuments, shoot films, publish books about the event by different dates. Where is at least one movie comparable to Liberation? When the creation was necessarily a consultant from the military. Is it really possible at the present opportunities to make a film about the same Battle of Stalingrad by such a date? To based on documents and eyewitness accounts. Unlike Hollywood, we don’t have to invent rambo heroes ... They just need to be remembered and told about. Well, that’s who watched Bondarchuk Fedor’s “Stalingrad”? One would like to say: "It is necessary, Fedya ... It is necessary!" and flog ...

        The day is officially a day off. Unfortunately, there are very limited opportunities for placing more people on the Square of the Fallen Fighters. Alas. + road closure - so many people watch the parade only on TV. I didn’t go either. Although the daughter is participating in the concert today. Well, for "reference", according to the decree, the city is officially "Stalingrad" today.

        I join in the congratulation!
        Several times I was in Volgograd at the celebration of May 9th. The first time - on his 50th birthday he took his 8-year-old son. He still recalls how I told him that such a round date will not be soon and there will not be so many participants. Then the parade could be seen by ordinary people. In 2015, there were many foreign delegations and it was very difficult for “ours” to get to the center and to a concert on Mamaev Kurgan ... we couldn’t - we watched the Volga crossing from the other side.

        That's just such a feeling of the holiday on Victory Day, I have never met anywhere else ...

        Yes, I was born in Volgograd but I support renaming.
        In the early 80s, I opened a T-34 Chelyabinsk Collective Farmer, who stands on a pedestal at the site of the boiler closure, with a couple of friends. We completely cleaned it - there were 25 centimeters of land inside - bullets, sleeves, oil pipe with oil ...
        Cleaned and closed. When I came to Volgograd in 2006, I buried my father and came to this monument. I was very surprised how high the pedestal was, how we climbed in without a ladder ...
        the city must return its name, the most tragic stage: STALINGRAD!
        The whole world knows him!

      Thank you, dear! Thank you for the video!
      An obelisk is visible in the background. This is the area of ​​the Fallen Fighters.
      There is ETERNAL FIRE!
      In 1983 I deserved to stand there on guard. And I stood there for 2 weeks.
      I didn’t have summer, filed shoes. And my partner, Anton N., was not there either. They stood in the summer, at the end of July, in winter boots. Nobody told anyone. They said that we have something to stand for. Yes, these are the "Pinocchio".
      Anton, a couple of years before his father died, a pilot. test pilot. Really. no fools.
      Here we are with Antokha in July 83. and stood at the Eternal Flame.
      Antokha also became a pilot. Now retired, lives in Krasnodar.
      Be healthy!

    I had a little time to live in this city and in the land to rummage around with my hands on agricultural work. There is solid metal, full of unexploded mines, shells, and grenades. It is hard to imagine how our city was held in this hell. The name Stalingrad is written in the blood of Soviet people on this earth!

    Well, let's now write all the cities like this, for example, in the city of St. Petersburg (Leningrad), Yekaterinburg (Sverdlovsk), Vladikavkaz (Ordzhonikidze), Nizhny Novgorod (Gorky), etc.

      so those cities didn’t get much in renaming, well, maybe except for Peter ... For some reason, Hero was assigned to Stalingrad in the 65th year, when he was already Volgograd, although in fact he became a Hero under the name Stalingrad.
      And yet - by typing "Stalingrad" on Wikipedia - we get not a story about the city and its feat, but a film ... Here's such, you know, a squiggle ...

        So, in relation to Peter, no one needs to rename it to Leningrad, but they already got it with Volgograd, found the basis for PR, again Zhirik just offered to rename, and I want to offer him to rename himself. The city in which I live is called VOLGOGRAD, when it was Stalingrad, before that Tsaritsyn, yes it passed
